2 Samuel 8:2-14
21And He 2defeatedH5221 3MoabH4124, and measuredH4058 them with the lineH2256, making them lieH7901 downH7901 on the groundH776; and he measuredH4058 twoH8147 linesH2256 to putH4191 toH4191 deathH4191, and a fullH4393 lineH2256 to keepH2421 aliveH2421. And 4the MoabitesH4124 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, 5bringingH5375 tributeH4503.
3Then DavidH1732 6defeatedH5221 7HadadezerH1909, the sonH1121 of RehobH7340 kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, as 8he wentH1980 to restoreH7725 his 9powerH3027 at the Euphrates RiverH5104. 4And DavidH1732 capturedH3920 from him 101,700H505H7651H3967 horsemenH6571 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 footH7273 soldiersH376H7273; and DavidH1732 11hamstrungH6136 almost allH3605 the chariotH7393 horsesH7393, but leftH3498 enough of them for a hundredH3967 chariotsH7393. 5When 12the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834 cameH935 to helpH5826 HadadezerH1909, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678, DavidH1732 13killedH5221 twenty-twoH6242H8147 thousandH505 menH376 among the ArameansH758. 6Then DavidH1732 putH7760 garrisonsH5333 among the ArameansH758 of DamascusH1834, and 14the ArameansH758 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732, bringingH5375 tributeH4503. And 15the LordH3068 helpedH3467 DavidH1732 whereverH3605H834 he wentH1980. 7DavidH1732 tookH3947 the shieldsH7982 of goldH2091 whichH834 were 16carriedH413 by the servantsH5650 of HadadezerH1909, and broughtH935 them to JerusalemH3389. 8And from 17BetahH984 and 18BerothaiH1307, citiesH5892 of HadadezerH1909, KingH4428 DavidH1732 tookH3947 a veryH3966 largeH7235 amount of bronzeH5178.
9Now when ToiH8583 kingH4428 of 19HamathH2574 heardH8085 that DavidH1732 had 20defeatedH5221 the wholeH3605 armyH2428 of HadadezerH1909, 10ToiH8583 sentH7971 his sonH1121 21JoramH3141 to KingH4428 DavidH1732 to 22greetH7592H7965 him and blessH1288 him, becauseH5921H834 he had foughtH3898 HadadezerH1909 and 23defeatedH5221 him; for HadadezerH1909 24had beenH1961 at warH4421 with ToiH8583. And 25Joram brought with him articlesH3627 of silverH3701, goldH2091, and bronzeH5178. 11KingH4428 DavidH1732 alsoH1571 26consecratedH6942 these gifts to the LordH3068, with the silverH3701 and goldH2091 that he had consecratedH6942 from allH3605 the nationsH1471 whichH834 he had subduedH3533: 12from 27AramH758, 28MoabH4124, 29the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983, 30the PhilistinesH6430, 31AmalekH6002, and from the spoilsH7998 of HadadezerH1909, sonH1121 of RehobH7340, kingH4428 of ZobahH6678.
13So 32DavidH1732 madeH6213 a nameH8034 for himself when he returnedH7725 from 33killingH5221 eighteenH8083H6240 thousandH505 34ArameansH758 in 35the ValleyH1516 of SaltH4417. 14He also putH7760 garrisonsH5333 in EdomH112. In allH3605 EdomH112 he putH7760 garrisonsH5333, and 36allH3605 the EdomitesH112 becameH1961 servantsH5650 to DavidH1732. And 37the LordH3068 helpedH3467 DavidH1732 whereverH3605H834 he wentH1980.
